In the MoA, CEA will assume the “producer of research” role in support of the social development program of the archdiocese. The researches and evaluation findings will serve as baseline information that will be used by SACOP for decision-making, planning and reforms.
Part also of the agreement is SACOP’s accommodation of CEA students as trainees in the construction project where they could apply and practice the theories learned inside the classroom.
The MoA was signed by UA President, Fr. Joselito Henson and SACOP Executive Director, Fr. Kenneth Alde.
